• A tri-band scanning radio for Cisco CleanAir Pro
• A 2.4-GHz IoT (BLE) radio
• Environmental Sensors:
• Ambient temperature sensor
• Air quality sensor (Total Volatile Organic Compound [TVOC])
• Relative humidity sensor
• Accelerometer
• Magnetometer
The environment sensors are configurable on Cisco Spaces platform.
For more information on how to configure the AP sensor in Cisco Spaces, see
the AP as a Sensor section in the Cisco Spaces: IoT Services Conf iguration Guide.
Note
• Integrated internal antennas are directional for the 2.4-GHz, 5-GHz, and 6-GHz bands.
• Scanning radio uses two 2.4-GHz, 5-GHz, and 6-GHz antennas.
• Multiuser Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) technology for uplink and downlink.
• Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access-based (OFDMA-based) scheduling for both uplink and
downlink.
• The following hardware external interfaces:
• 1x100/1000/2500/5000 Multigigabit Ethernet (RJ-45)
• RS-232 Console Interface through RJ-45
• Recovery push button (enables partial or full system configuration recovery)
• USB 2.0 port, type-A connector
• DC 54V power jack
• One multicolor LED
• Integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio to enable IoT use cases such as location tracking and
wayfinding.
• Intelligent Capture probes the network and provides Cisco Spaces with deep analysis.
• Spatial Reuse (also known as Basic Service Set [BSS] coloring) that allows APs and their clients to
differentiate between multiple BSS, thus permitting more simultaneous transmissions.
• Power savings mode called Target Wake Time (TWT), which allows clients to stay asleep and wake up
only at prescheduled (target) times to exchange data with the AP. This provides significant energy savings
for battery-operated devices.
